We Photograph from March -November yearly taking December – February off ,but we are working in that time and Ed busy up dating web sites, editing Images , working on last minute Wedding Albums and I am talking on the phone , emailing , and taking care of clients, orders, paper work …. We are getting ready for next year We can hardly wait!and make a great team !! We both love to be out Photographing and meeting People.
